The Handstand Workshop Bournemouth is a 2-hour long event that caters to both complete beginners and individuals looking to enhance their handstand practice. Whether you are new to handstands or can hold one for a few seconds away from the wall, this workshop is perfect for you. Led by professional hand balancers, the workshop will teach you balancing techniques and drills that you can apply to your own handstand practice at your own pace. The workshop not only focuses on improving your handstand technique and consistency but also aims to build upper body strength, enhance flexibility and mobility, prevent and recover from handstand-related injuries, and overcome the fear of falling. Participants from various backgrounds such as yoga, pole dance, gymnastics, calisthenics, crossfit, climbing, circus, acro yoga, and fitness enthusiasts have attended this workshop in the past. The workshop is divided into two parts. The first part includes warm-up drills, correct handstand alignment technique, balance strategies, and various handstand drills against the wall. The second part covers additional themes like cartwheels (which are useful for bailing out from handstands), stretching and mobility exercises for handstands, and conditioning drills to strengthen your handstand. The workshop is designed to help you improve your balance, technique, and confidence, while also providing an opportunity to meet like-minded individuals. Please note that this workshop is for adults only, although some teenagers with an athletic or gymnastics background may be considered. Refunds are not available, but you can arrange for someone else to take your place if you are unable to attend.
